I'm assuming that there are no snow suits, hats, mittens, and boots involved?

Even with lining everything up before hand and having the kids "help" as much as possible it takes at least 5 minutes to get out in the winter. I plan firedrills for days when it's warmer. Today will be in the single digits, so we won't be doing a drill. I also get kids ready to get outside and then press the fire alarm. We do "real" drills in warmer months and like a pp we talk frequently about the fact that they are not to try to take anything but to get OUTSIDE when they hear the alarm.
